Initial setup

  1. Prepare installation media available at {URL} according to instructions {URL}
  2. Optionally install virtualization support in Fedora:
# yum -y install @virtualization
# service libvirtd start

Installation on bios/firmware RAID

Setup

  1. You need a machine with bios/firmware RAID supported by dmraid or MD. Linux MD driver supports Intel Matrix RAID technology, dmraid supports following products:
    • asr  : Adaptec HostRAID ASR (0,1,10)
    • ddf1  : SNIA DDF1 (0,1,4,5,linear)
    • hpt37x  : Highpoint HPT37X (S,0,1,10,01)
    • hpt45x  : Highpoint HPT45X (S,0,1,10)
    • isw  : Intel Software RAID (0,1,5,01)
    • jmicron : JMicron ATARAID (S,0,1)
    • lsi  : LSI Logic MegaRAID (0,1,10)
    • nvidia  : NVidia RAID (S,0,1,10,5)
    • pdc  : Promise FastTrack (S,0,1,10)
    • sil  : Silicon Image(tm) Medley(tm) (0,1,10)
    • via  : VIA Software RAID (S,0,1,10)
    • dos  : DOS partitions on SW RAIDs
  2. you need multiple hard drives connected to controller supporting RAID setup,
  3. setup arbitary RAID level in your firmware.

Action

  1. Boot the installation media on prepared machine,
  2. finish the installation by choosing default options.

Expected Results

  1. Installation starts up properly,
  2. RAID device is recognized and used,
  3. system is installed without issue, it boots up,
  4. system is installed on RAID and not underlying devices.

Installation on iSCSI

  1. Run any test case from QA:ISCSI_Installation_Test_plan
